In this expansive update, players, known as Proxies, will explore the Waifei Peninsula with allies like Yixuan from Yunkui Summit. They’ll work to revitalize the Suibian Temple in Failume Heights and tackle more complex Hollow battles in a more open environment. Celebrating the game’s first anniversary, Version 2.0 offers a plethora of rewards, including a free S-Rank Agent, S-Rank W-Engine, 1,600 Polychromes, and 20 Encrypted Master Tapes.
The update takes players to Waifei Peninsula, a vibrant district of New Eridu. Guided by Yi Xuan, the High Preceptor of Yunkui Summit, Proxies will delve into Phaethon’s secrets. The main city, Failume Heights, thrives near Lemnian Hollow, known for its Porcelume resources. Proxies will manage their own Suibian Temple, upgrading facilities, completing commissions, and collecting Hollow resources for in-game rewards.
Lemnian Hollow is rich in resources and fraught with danger. Powerful foes gain enhancements under certain conditions, but new allies will join the ranks.

Ju Fufu, debuting as an S-Rank Fire Stun Agent, boosts the team’s power with her weapon, Hu Wei. Other new characters include the kitchen-savvy Pan Yinhu and the S-Rank Bangboo, Belion. Also returning are the S-Rank Ether Support Astra Yao and S-Rank Physical Defense Caesar.
The update enriches gameplay with new commissions and the ability to equip multiple Gears, providing more strategic options. Players can also enjoy cinema events in Lumina Square during the Gravitational Attraction event, earning exclusive rewards. The Soul of Steel: Golden Bond event allows players to pilot mechs in the Hollows and earn numerous rewards.
For easier exploration, Version 2.0 introduces a new 3D map and enhanced navigation features. The new Fissure Beacons will help Proxies restore health, revive Agents, and teleport efficiently. Players finishing Season 1 Chapter 2 Interlude can dive into Season 2’s main storyline directly.
Beyond the new content, the update brings generous anniversary rewards for player support. Proxies can select a free S-Rank Agent and W-Engine, alongside receiving Polychromes and an exclusive title and avatar. Additional rewards include Encrypted Master Tapes, Boopons, and new character outfits by completing challenges and event commissions.
